Betrand Russell, philosopher, mathematician, logician and pacifist (among other things), was born on this day in 1872, so he’s today’s Friday Face.
And just before his death in 1970, he filmed a message for you…
“So far as I can remember, there is not one word in the Gospels in praise of intelligence.”

Born-again Disco queen Donna Summer died this morning. My friend Andy said it best:
“Well, she was a bible-thumping, gay-bashing bitch, but sorry she’s dead.”

The image of fabulous “Drag Race” superstar Latrice Royale has appeared on a slice of toast in a Grand Slam Breakfast at a Denny’s in Bakersfield, California.
The Vatican immediately issued a statement confirming Latrice’s divinity, saying, “She’s chunky and funky and holy. She’s Latrice Motherfuckin’ Royale.”
Yeah, a Vatican spokesman said that.

This is news to brighten your Good Friday and Passover celebrations! The Duchess of Alba rolled out of the palace and into Seville for some religious observations on Thursday! She’s better!
Looking super chic in a black Bubby dress and modified bolero jacket, the bouffanted beauty affixed her trademark sneer and hobbled along the cobblestones, guided by Duke Alfie (left), and some guy with hair from 1974.
It’s so nice to see her up and about! There is a God.

Oh dear, it seems Princess Beatrice is TRYING not to wear such an outrageous hat as the one she wore to the royal wedding, choosing instead this comical yet maudlin tablet chapeau with what appear to be crumpled black plastic bags fashioned into dahlias.
She’s either holding a bouquet or another hat to wear.
Anyway, this is how Bea looked at the Maundy Thursday Service (I’m feeling a little maundy today myself) in York. Gran was there too.
This is Betty getting a look at Bea’s hat. BD is wearing the blue candy button dress (again) with what appears to be the Jardine Star brooch, and a modified Mad Hatter bonnet that looks like a designer box of Kleenex.
The Archbishop of York was there, wearing a Christacular mitre, and ready with a bouquet for Betty. A fun day for all!

When I saw this picture that Kim Kardashian tweeted last night, I couldn’t tell, at first, if her eyes were open or closed… which reminded me of this famous Jesus painting by Gabriel Max with the open/closed eyes illusion.
The father of one of them represented O.J. Simpson.

“American Idol” wannabeen David Archuleta, now 21, has announced to his legion of fan that he’s leaving show business in order to become a Mormon missionary for two years. Maybe he’ll knock on your door! That is, if you live in South America.
After a training session in Utah, where they keep the Mormons, David will travel south to spread the word of the Latter Day Saints. Apparently he’ll be incommunicado for the entire two years, so don’t expect him on any “Idol” reunion shows… not that anyone would watch them if they made them.
Bon voyage, young Davy, and here’s hoping your showbiz dad hasn’t pushed you out of the glitter so you could pimp for the lord.
And now, because I love it, here’s the funny underwear the Mormons wear. For real.
I wouldn’t mind seeing him in this.

Pope Benedict as seen waving to his fans in Havana’s Revolution Square today, and RuPaul as seen in one of this season’s episodes of “RuPaul’s Drag Race.”
One is a man in a dress.

Pope Benedict as he appeared in Guanajuato, Mexico on Sunday in a traditional sombrero, and DC Comics character El Sombrero.
One is an amoral man in a world of solar-powered strongmen and physical gods.

It’s a helluva mess for Paul and Jan CROUCH, whose granddaughter alleges that the two siphoned off $50 million to live the high life, which included a $100,000 trailer… for dogs.
One of Paul and Jan’s many mansions is this one in Orange County…
Jesus.
That’s not a swimming pool… it’s a reservoir for Jan’s hairspray.
